In retrospect, it's a small jump from Shakespeare to God. What if Gibson had been stopped then?
June 24, 2006
It's a surprisingly successful venture, decked out in Anglo-Saxon styles and with a brooding, robust castle setting which oozes horse muck.
October 04, 2003
Not only is Mel Gibson much better than you might expect, but Zeffirelli's Hamlet is often entertaining and rarely hard to endure.
January 01, 2000
There's nothing embarrassing about Zeffirelli's brisk new version, nor anything particularly remarkable; it's an entirely credible, middle-of-the-road production.
July 04, 2008
Offers what amounts to a comic book intro to Shakespeare's classic, retaining few of the play's psychological complexities.
June 06, 2012
Starring Mel Gibson, Zeffirelli's Oscar-nominated version is colorful and mildly engaging, but lacking depth and poetry, and the two women are miscast.
July 04, 2008
Performances all fall in a middle range between the competent and the lackluster.
Rolling Stone

Gibson gives the melancholy Dane an earnest but pedestrian reading.
Common Sense Media

Mel Gibson emotes as the doleful Dane.
New York Times

[Mel Gibson] is by far the best part of Mr. Zeffirelli's sometimes slick but always lucid and beautifully cinematic version of the play.
February 19, 2012
Alas, poor Mel Gibson! I knew him when he was on top of the world.
January 01, 2000
Reduced to 'Master Pieces Theater,' Shakespeare's text nevertheless gains in force what it loses in integrity.
